Acceleration depends on which two factors?
Net force and mass
What is the formulae for mass?
Force divided by acceleration = mass
What is acceleration?
Slowing down, speeding up, and/or changing direction
What is Newton’s second law of motion
The greater the mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object
To make a soccer ball move faster, what do you need to increase?
The force applied to the ball
What does F=MA mean?
Force = mass X acceleration
What is force measured in?
Newtons
How do you calculate average speed?
Total distance divided by total time = average speed
What is needed to determine the position of an object?
Distance, a reference point, and reference direction
What do you need to determine if an object has changed position?
Its position relative to another objects
What do you need to determine an objects location?
Reference point
What can motion be described as a change in?
Position
What is Newton’s first law of motion?
An object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue in motions with a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net external force
How do you calculate force?
Mass x acceleration = force
